Thanks to the folks at Puffin, these time-tested favourites (and dozens more) can all be enjoyed in a single, handsomely illustrated volume. Pass on tradition by treating your child to some of the best rhymes and stories in the English language--"Old MacDonald had a Farm," "The Three Billy Goats Gruff" and "Pop Goes the Weasel"--plus newer works such as Eric Hill's delightful "Spot's First Picnic" and Dennis Lee's bedtime "Good Night, Good Night."Artwork from the likes of Edward Lear, Penny Ives, Beatrix Potter and others make this volume extra special. Both you and your child will revel in Mary McQuillan's bright and silly accompaniments to "The Three Monkeys" and "Pussy-cat, Pussy-cat," along with Shirley Hughes' brimming-with-nostalgia seaside portraits and Nick Sharrat's brightly-coloured array of spiders and the spouts they emerge from. With such enticing drawings, no child will be able to resist joining in with "Pat-a-Cake, Pat-a-Cake," "Little Jack Horner," and "Jack and Jill."Rather than reading it from cover to cover,The Puffin Baby and Toddler Treasuryis meant for picking and choosing. Make a beeline for your favourites, then go from there. You're not likely to go wrong.

Prior to my sons arrival, hubby & I spent many an evening trying to recollect different nursery rhymes from our childhoods. We soon realised that we could barely remember any in full, if at all! Plus, with him being American & me being British, there seemed to be many differences between the rhymes we were both taught, leading to great debate as to whose version was best...!

After much deliberating over the choice of nursery rhyme books available on Amazon, I finally decided on the 'Puffin Baby & Toddler Treasury'.
This is a hardback book, with a delightful dust jacket & cover adorned with pastel coloured pictures of baby toys & depictions of the stories/rhymes within. There is also a useful ribbon page marker.
Opening the book, there is space to fill in 'This Book Belongs To...', a nice feature for a keepsake book from childhood, & also to put who from if the book is to be a gift (it would be wonderful for this purpose). Following this is a comprehensive contents list, delightfully adorned with animals & nursery rhyme characters.
Moving on to the actual contents, there is a vast array of rhymes, songs & short stories. Famous authors/characters are also well represented in this book, with short stories featuring 'Spot the Dog' by Eric Hill, 'The Snowman' by Raymond Briggs, 'The Tale of Tom Kitten' by Beatrix Potter, & 'The Ugly Duckling' by Hans Christian Anderson. Nursery rhymes include such as Hey Diddle Diddle, Little Miss Muffet, Hickory Dickory Dock, Pat-A-Cake, Doctor Foster, Little Bo Peep etc etc. Songs include Old MacDonald, If You're Happy and You Know It, Heads & Shoulders & The Wheels on the Bus etc.
Each page is beautifully illustrated, & the writing is large & clear to help early readers.
If it's just nursery rhymes you're after, then there are perhaps better books available which would include a greater array of just nursery rhymes, but I think this is a wonderful book with a great selection & variety for young children. It's great for adults too - it's surprising how many nursery rhymes etc you realise you've forgotten!
The book is hardback with 178 pages, & an RRP of £14.99, but is currently available on Amazon.co.uk for £9.74 (price correct @ July 09).
